Answer: Cheetah

Acinonyx Jubatus, or the cheetah, is the fastest land animal covering short distances, with speeds that can reach up to 120 km/h or 75 miles/hour. This species is not considered to be a typical cat as its insane speed is not shared by any other big cats.

The cheetah also lacks climbing abilities, and its speed raises its body temperature up so much that it would die if it continues its fast run for medium to long distances. However, its powerful acceleration gives it a huge advantage over its prey.
